Where is the removable filter locates Tammy and how is it removed

Hi Tammy! Good question. For a Frigidaire 24‑inch Top Control Built-in Dishwasher (with MaxDry / DishSense), the removable filter (sometimes called the “glass trap + filter assembly”) is located at the bottom of the tub, under the lower rack near the spray arm. Here’s how to locate and remove it: 1. Open the dishwasher and pull out the bottom rack. - Removing the rack gives you clear access to the bottom. 2. Look for the filter assembly near the center of the tub floor (usually just above the lower spray arm). - It typically appears as a circular or cylindrical “filter cover/mesh” (sometimes with a tab or handle). 3. Twist‑and‑lock (or twist‑to‑unlock) the filter cover. - For many models, you rotate the cover/cup counter‑clockwise to release the filter. 4. Lift out the filter assembly (both main/coarse filter and any fine mesh filter beneath). - Some models use a “glass trap” at the center for larger debris (glass shards, pits, bones, etc.). 5. Rinse the filter(s) under running water. You can use a soft brush or cloth to remove stuck-on food particles. - Then re‑install by placing it back in and twisting clockwise (or until locked). Press down slightly to ensure it’s properly seated. 6. Replace the bottom rack and resume normal dishwasher use. Additional notes: - According to the manual for similar 24" Frigidaire dishwashers, the “glass trap” in the center of the filter is designed to catch broken glass, pits, bones, etc. - The manufacturer notes that the filter area is normally “self‑cleaning with regular use,” but recommends periodically (or as needed) removing and cleaning the glass trap and filter to clear out debris. - Maico
